: So, until the kits arrive, I'd like to check how other Terns were built. If
: you've built an Artic Tern, or know of a web page describing a Tern
: construction, could you please send me those links (or post them here) ?

: I'll also appreciate any tip/advice on how to approach/start this
: construction and avoid common mistakes.

Hi Hugo -

Congrats on picking two fine kits. I've built both the Tern 17 and Tern 14.
Here's a photo of the 17 and a link to the old page I put up about building it.
The Tern 17 and Tern 14 were my first two boat-building projects. Use just enough epoxy (to keep the weight down) and you'll have 2 very cool boats.
